This weekend, we were all feeling pretty crummy. Allergies hit us all like a ton of bricks. Lil' Piper had a fever off and on all weekend. Yucky Yucky. I usually don't take the kids out when they don't feel well, especially with fever, but I had to make an exception on Saturday. Not only were they not feeling 100%, neither was I. I so didn't want to cook. And It goes against everything I say, but we went to Gatti-Town for some pizza and Santa. We just planned on on eating and staying to ourselves away from any other kids.
Here's how Piper and Santa's meeting went:
At first, she clung to my leg and wouldn't let go.
Then she went and hid behind John. The 1st meeting, this is about as close as she was gonna get. We kept telling her that if she didn't tell Santa about wanting a bed and a pillow pet, she wasn't gonna get anything!
Then John tried standing with her with Santa....
That didn't work either.
But it did make for a great pic for John's desk!
After lots of pizza and Toy Story 3 and a whole bunch bribery.
Yep I said bribery! This included a balloon, an icee, and desert.
After all of this and a hand on the small of her back to keep her from running off, she finally spoke to Santa. YAY!!!!!!!
She really does want a bed and pillow pet!!!!
So bad!
John said if his hand wasn't on the small of her back, she would have ran off in a second!
Finally a picture!!!!
But Presley and Santa looked like dear old friends.
I am happy Piper spoke with Santa this year.
Maybe she will get her big girl bed and pillow pet!
Oh, Piper's big complaint about Santa on this night was that he's hairy!
